Nie Chen smiled, put the tea on the table, turned to Weng Qiuchan and said,

"I think we need to find a wife for Zhou An. You see how anxious he is every day. I need to find him a gentle and virtuous woman to soothe his heart."

Weng Qiuchan chuckled.

"Don't laugh, I'm serious. Look at Ouyang, he has almost found a wife."

Nie Chen pointed to Ouyang Ming beside him.

Ouyang Ming almost choked on his tea and quickly waved his hands and said,

"My lord, you are joking again. Miss Mo is still a lady, don't ruin her reputation, she and I are innocent."

"Well, I'm still innocent now. I won't know after a while. You say every day that you don't like this little girl who wields knives and guns, but in fact you still dote on this lively and innocent girl. Well, otherwise, how could you tolerate her nagging in your ear every day?

Let me tell you, Mo Wan'er is pretty good. Look, a smart man paired with a stupid woman, a steady wise man paired with a lively and active little girl. The contrast is full. What a good couple. They are just like each other. A match made in heaven.

Look at me and Qiu Chan, isn’t that the perfect match? Look how good life is now. "

Weng Qiuchan originally listened to Nie Chen's words with a smile, but at the end of the hearing, she realized that something was wrong. Why did it involve herself?

She picked up her pink fist, hit Nie Chen hard, and said coquettishly,

"Are you a smart man? I am a stupid woman? You are steady and I am lively? How are you smarter than me? How can I be more lively? How can I enjoy wielding knives and guns?"

"Do you admit that you kidnapped a man in the street and took him to the mountain?"

"You still mentioned it, I think you are looking for a beating!"

Zhou An was extremely anxious and said,

"Oh, you two, stop fighting now. I just don't understand. Why don't you just go out, surround the enemy, and kill Pang Shou?"

Nie Chen said with a smile,

"Zhou An, it's easy to defeat the enemy, but it's rare to annihilate them all. We don't attack them this time because we want to take a long-term view and catch big fish. We have to stay calm and withstand temptation.

Now there are 150,000 enemy troops coming out, and there are still 50,000 people in the city.

In broad daylight, our army led the army out of the camp. Wouldn't Pang Shou notice it? Seeing that he is about to be surrounded by us, will he stop running?

To take a step back, even if our army surrounded the enemy, killed Pang Shou, and completely wiped out the enemy, this process would take several days.

And Pang Shou will not let our army surround him.

There are still 50,000 people in the enemy's city. These 50,000 people defending the city are not much different from the 200,000 people defending the city. If they resist desperately, it will still be difficult for our army to conquer.

It is normal to fight a siege war for half a year.

What's more, we are still facing the main force of the enemy. At this time, the battle is tactics, and the battle is who can lose composure first.

We spent so much effort to get Pang Shou back, not just to kill a Pang Shou, nor just to defeat the enemy. Do you understand? "

"not understand."

Zhou An answered decisively.

Nie Chen's nose turned crooked with anger, he waved his hands and said,

"Forget it if you don't understand. You can go back to sleep, or go to the military medical officer to see if there are any wounded soldiers or soldiers harassing the female medical officer. Go on patrol."

"Okay."

Zhou An walked out of the camp.

"Qi Huan, send someone to keep an eye on Zhou An. Don't let him sneak out of the camp. We won't leave the camp today."

"yes!"

Qi Huan nodded immediately.

Outside the camp, Pang Shou sent people to fight for more than an hour. Seeing that the Feng army's counterattack was indeed quite powerful, and those large weapons were indeed very powerful, and that his own side could not attack for a long time and suffered heavy casualties, he ordered the withdrawal.

When leaving, he even said to Pang Wei sternly,

"Look at this Nie Chen, he is really frightened by me. I have been fighting for so long, and they don't dare to surround me.

We want to withdraw our troops, but he doesn't dare to come after me. It makes me laugh to death that there is such a cowardly lord in the world. Can such a person frighten Ren Jun so much that he hides in the city and dares not go out to fight?

If Ren Jun had gone to battle earlier, Nie Chen would not have dared to show his face.

I really don’t know whether to call Ren Jun timid or Nie Chen timid. "

Pang Wei laughed and said,

"Commander, you are still wise. You can tell at a glance that Nie Chen is as timid as a mouse. Nie Chen cherishes his life very much. He never dares to fight hard battles. He always likes to take advantage of opportunities. When I meet you who likes to fight hard battles, , he has met his nemesis."

"Hahaha, that's right, let's go back and have a drink to celebrate.

By the way, hurry up and send a battle report to the capital. Write it carefully and mention my name as Pang Shou. It will scare Nie Chen so much that he flees back to the camp in embarrassment. When our army attacks, he does not dare to show his face and fight, so he can only shrink his head.

As for the number of enemies killed... Well, maybe 20,000 enemies killed. If it is too much, it seems a bit fake. "

"Yes, yes, I will eventually understand."

As they spoke, they led the army back to the city in a show of force.

It has to be said that Pang Shou took the initiative to attack this time. Although many people were killed or injured, it also greatly boosted morale. Before, the soldiers had been surrounded and beaten by Nie Chen and did not dare to fight. The morale was indeed low. Now after a fight. A great victory, and smiles appeared on the faces of the soldiers.

On the top of the city, Zhang Feng witnessed the battle with his own eyes. He watched his own army march out in a majestic manner. The Feng army only dared to defend passively and did not dare to take the initiative from the beginning to the end. He became even more confused.

Could it be that Nie Chen was really scared out of his wits by Pang Shou?

This is not like Nie Chen's style. This person has always been bold and scheming. Could he be planning something behind his back?

Pang Shou's battle report was sent to the capital in the evening. After Mingxuan saw it, he was overjoyed. In the imperial study, he repeatedly praised Pang Shou as a talented general and a man chosen by heaven. He defeated Nie Chen once in the past. As expected, he did not Wrong person.

He happily went to the harem, took the battle report, and found his queen. The prince was already waiting for the queen, and shared this joy with his relatives.

After the prince heard about it, he also congratulated Mingxuan repeatedly, praising Pang Shou as a loyal and brave man and a pillar of the country. After the war is over, he must reward Pang Shou well.

In the morning, he had just ordered Ren Jun to be put under house arrest at home. He originally wanted to put Ren Jun in jail for interrogation, but after the ministers' pleas and the right minister who was sick at home wrote a letter of plea, he changed his mind. , and put Ren Jun under house arrest.

Mingxuan immediately sent someone to copy the battle report and send it to Ren Jun's home, so that Ren Jun could see what a real fierce general was and what the power of the Korean army was.

Mingxuan was in a good mood. When he pampered Concubine Xue at night, he worked even harder. It was like a tree blooming in spring.

Ren Jun, who was at home with his wife, children, and young children, after receiving this battle report, his face was solemn and bitter, and he only said two words...

"It's over"!

(PS: Happy New Year, dear friends, today is the first day of 2024. Everyone should be happy in the new year. This book has officially entered the most exciting plot. To be honest, this book has not achieved the best results. It's not ideal. The main reason is that I didn't plagiarize poems or write too many mindless and pretentious plots, which made many people unwilling to read it.

But I still focus more on war and strategy. After all, in troubled times, poetry and pretentiousness cannot conquer the world. Only outstanding commanders, strong soldiers and correct policies can save the world. I will try my best to save the world. Realistic, not mindless pretense.

Come on, cheer for me, vote for me in the new year, I love you. )
